Call for papers

The 6th Conference on Cultural and Creative Industries will be held in Patras in December 2024 with the aim of mapping research activities in Greece, exchanging views among all stakeholders and creating opportunities for new collaborations.

The evolution of labor and production/consumption in the cultural and creative industries through the various transformations of recent years (pandemic, crises) will be the main theme of the 2024 Conference.

Beyond the obvious importance of technology as a key factor in shaping the operating environment of CCIs, developments in platforms and artificial intelligence are creating new challenges for creative and artistic labour. In addition, new forms of spatial organization of labour and production are emerging through collaborative workspaces, creative hubs, shared workspaces, etc., as well as new partnerships through the social and solidarity economy, cultural commons, etc.

 

Topics

  • Digitization, AI, and artistic/creative labor
  • Platforms and gig workforce in the CCIs
  • Precarious labour in the CCIs
  • Crisis, resilience, and survival in the Cultural & Creative industries
  • New forms, collaborative spaces (creative hubs - coworking spaces), and new types of organization for the production and labour in the CCIs
  • New funding models (crowdfunding, etc.)
  • Labor policies in times of polycrisis
  • Integration of the CCIs workforce in global networks; business and workforce mobility
  • Cultural heritage and urban/regional development
  • Spatial inequalities in the creative economy
  • Spatial clustering and creative ecosystems
  • Mapping creativity
  • Cultural and creative industries and policy making from local to supranational

Sessions for postgraduate and Ph.D. students will be organized during the conference.
